Here’s a Thought for the New Year

by Joe Sullivan on January 3, 2012

It is the first business day of the New Year and there are so many things to think about – emails to answer, calls to make, etc. There are so many things that require attention, but if you’re like me, you are starting the day with enthusiasm and excitement.

My own sense of optimism is fueled by a new initiative here at Market Insights. I’ve developed a program called Purpose, Passion and Profits – A New Path to a Profitable Future. The content of this program is adaptable to a variety of formats and can be delivered as a conference speech for an association or a seminar/retreat for a board or group of employees at individual banks and credit unions. I am completely psyched about this and will write about it frequently throughout the year.

Organizations too often make profitability a strategic objective, when it is actually the result of executing on a clear sense of purpose and having the kind of team in place that is passionate about what needs to be done.

In 2012, envision not what is possible or probable, but what your competitors think is impossible. Please drop me an email if you would like to know more.
